The DSO reporting information check tool was developed to automate and enhance compliance verification for documents submitted under the BbL (Building Decree Law) for demolition activities involving asbestos.

This AI-driven tool was developed part of a hackathon initiative aimed at demonstrating the potential for artificial intelligence to streamline regulatory checks, improve accuracy, and provide a more satisfying experience for compliance officers. Here’s a detailed look at the solution:

Automated and efficient compliance verification

The tool automates the initial compliance check of submitted documents, ensuring each report meets BbL requirements. By using AI, this solution reliably verifies whether the mandatory documentation and procedural requirements are satisfied, thereby reducing reliance on manual reviews that can be time-consuming and variable in quality.

Dramatic time savings in processing

By reducing the document review time from the standard two hours to a maximum of two minutes, the tool significantly reduces the manual workload for compliance officers. This efficiency allows the team to handle a higher volume of cases without sacrificing thoroughness, freeing up time for more complex tasks.

Enhanced consistency, accuracy, and quality in reviews

The tool reduces human variability in compliance assessments, ensuring a consistent standard of document verification across all submissions. By minimising manual input, the tool helps prevent errors, resulting in higher-quality compliance checks and a more uniform application of regulatory standards.

Comprehensive AI-generated reporting and customisation options

Moving beyond simple templates, the tool generates detailed reports based on the AI’s analysis, with options for customised letters that include additional explanations as needed. This personalisation adds value for the reporting agencies and improves communication clarity, helping submitters understand compliance requirements more effectively.

Scalable design with future-ready capabilities

The tool has been designed to integrate additional functionalities, such as adding new checklists for emerging compliance needs. This flexibility supports future regulatory changes, including the ability to expand document types or integrate with updated compliance requirements, making the tool adaptable and scalable for long-term use.

This AI-based compliance solution saves time and enhances job satisfaction for officers by reducing repetitive tasks, allowing them to focus on high-value activities. With improved consistency, detailed reporting, and the ability to evolve with regulatory changes, the DSO reporting information check tool sets a new standard for compliance in asbestos-related reporting.
